In your FORUMHOME template, find this:


<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="content">
<tr valign="top">
<td width="217">
<div class="tcat2">Latest Threads</div>
<div class="ct">
<script type="text/javascript" src="external.php?type=js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/latestthreads.js"></script></div>
<div class="tcat2">Forum Statistics</div>
<div class="ct"><strong>$vbphrase[threads]</strong>: $totalthreads<br />
<strong>$vbphrase[posts]</strong>: $totalposts<br />
<strong>$vbphrase[members]</strong>: $numbermembers<br />
<strong>Number of Users Online</strong>: $totalonline<br />
<phrase 1="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$newuserid" 2="$newusername">$vbphrase[welcome_to_our_newest_member_x]</phrase></div>
<div class="tcat2">Another Section</div>
<div class="ct">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Donec et urna ac erat consequat tincidunt. Class aptent taciti sociosqu ad litora torquent per conubia nostra, per inceptos hymenaeos. Cras risus nibh, egestas ac, fringilla at, molestie quis, <a href="#">urna</a>.</div> </td>
<td width="13"></td>
<td>
Delete it.

Then, scroll all the way to the bottom and find this:
<!-- / icons and login code -->
</td>
</tr>
</table>
Delete it and save the FORUMHOME template.

Then, edit your HEADER template and scroll all the way to the bottom. Add this at the end:


<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="content">
<tr valign="top">
<td width="217">
<div class="tcat2">Latest Threads</div>
<div class="ct">
<script type="text/javascript" src="external.php?type=js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/latestthreads.js"></script></div>
<div class="tcat2">Forum Statistics</div>
<div class="ct"><strong>$vbphrase[threads]</strong>: $totalthreads<br />
<strong>$vbphrase[posts]</strong>: $totalposts<br />
<strong>$vbphrase[members]</strong>: $numbermembers<br />
<strong>Number of Users Online</strong>: $totalonline<br />
<phrase 1="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$newuserid" 2="$newusername">$vbphrase[welcome_to_our_newest_member_x]</phrase></div>
<div class="tcat2">Another Section</div>
<div class="ct">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Donec et urna ac erat consequat tincidunt. Class aptent taciti sociosqu ad litora torquent per conubia nostra, per inceptos hymenaeos. Cras risus nibh, egestas ac, fringilla at, molestie quis, <a href="#">urna</a>.</div> </td>
<td width="13"></td>
<td>
Save the template and then edit your FOOTER template. Scroll all the way to the bottom and add this at the end:


</td>
</tr>
</table>

Excellent! Will this work on any simple style Edder?

It will, more or less. Once you swap in your own CSS, it should come out nicely.

hhmmmm... explain please?

thanks a lot

I am trying to get the navbuttons to work with vbadvance too but it won't show. Please let me know what is going on. My site is www.cobaltcoupe.net

All my image paths are set correctly, and all the rest of the images are showing perfectly its just the navbuttons for vbadvance. All the forum pages show the buttons.

It showed "XML Error: not well-formed (invalid token) at Line 1174" during I installed.
what's going on ?

Well, if you use the code I posted, it's just skin and bones HTML. As you already know, you would also have to customize the CSS to show some style - sorry for the pun.

Because vBadvanced and your forum are in two different directories, the images won't show up unless you change all of the URLs in your Main CSS to absolute URLs (e.g. instead of aero/misc/nav.gif, you need to change it to http://www.yourdomain.com/forums/aero/misc/nav.gif)

Hope that helps!

I honestly have no idea. Does it only happen when installing the Aerohead skin?

Aerohead has been updated for vBulletin 3.6.7. This brings it to internal version 1.02. A few images have been added to the /misc folder and some code changes have been made such as the addition of template hooks that accommodate the upcoming vBulletin Blog and Project Tools products.

For some reason, when I upgraded to vBulletin 3.6.7 on my demo forum, it converted all URLs to absolute URLs. As a result, all of you who are using the 3.6.7 version of Aerohead that you downloaded today/yesterday are hotlinking all of the images from my server. Don't worry, it's not your fault, but I would really appreciate it if you could help me resolve this.

I've updated the XML files in the Aerohead zip file with the correct image paths. Please either 1) fix all of the URLs in stylevars and Main CSS or 2) download the updated .XML files and reinstall the skin.

Thank you!

Thank you very much for the work you did. The style looks great, very clean.

Everything is working fine, I made sure all the image links were fixed.
I would like to know if you can help with my Arcade link, I can't seem to get the code right to create a button for it in the navbar. I am also looking for a place where I can find various code for the side bar. ie. Latest threads.

Thanks again, great work.

Thanks for the Skin Edder, looks awesome!

I'm having problems with the Latest threads .js, I enabled the External JS, RSS and XML, but it won't display them.

Any clue?

thanx a lot

Thanks / شكراا

nice style
